White House official's net neutrality comments irk ATT - (too bad...)

It's about time someone stepped up and said this.

Sorry ATT, but Net Neutrality is about EVERYTHING being equal on the internet.

We, the Users, pay for access from your crooked companies, and have made you huge, fat, and rich. Stop giving us the excuse that you have to manage bandwidth. You've known for YEARS that you were going to need more capability, and chose instead, to fatten your own wallets.

Now you're actually taking taxpayer money, (the same taxpayers that made you rich), and are planning on using it to make your networks larger. That's fraud in the highest degree. You should stand on your own, or die. We need to stop propping up your business...

If taxpayer dollars are going to fund the upgrades to your networks, how about giving every home free access? That only sounds fair to me...

That's just my 2 cents... Your mileage may vary.

All correct, but don't be disappointed when it plays out.
